Can do tomorrow but spacer lengths might depend on make of alternator. Best way I've found in the past is to assemble with long bolts, no spacers, adjust until the fan belt is aligned, measure the gaps and make spacers to suit.

The long spacer on mine is 35.5mm, well actually 35mm + 0.5mm shim. Can't measure the short front one without stripping it out due to it's location.
